For the launch of his report
Grave Diggers: A report on Mining in Burma
With its location along the fabled "Pacific Rim of Fire", there is
tremendous mining potential in the Southeast Asian country of Burma
(renamed the Union of Myanmar by the military regime). Indeed, this
potential is being tapped by Burma's military dictatorship, increasingly
with the help of foreign investors. The present report, by internationally
renowned mining expert Roger Moody exposes the shocking state of mining in
Burma, where mining regulations are lax and environmental standards
absent. No other report has been able to track systematically the
situation of mining in Burma, since information is difficult to get out of
this highly restrictive country.
